Brahms was, first and foremost, a composer of chamber music. While there are only about a dozen orchestral works in all, he composed three each of piano trios, piano quartets, string quartets, and violin sonatas; two each ... more »of cello sonatas, string quintets, and string sextets; and a host of other pieces such as the clarinet quintet, horn trio, and piano quintet. All of this lovely, romantic music has been gathered into this attractively priced box. Performances are generally expert, and the music itself will give enormous pleasure to listeners who generally think of the composer only in terms of his symphonies and concertos. --David Hurwitz« less

"this is a great cd box set. the sound quality is excellent, and the chamber music of Brahms can't be beat. it's sheer perfection and melodic bliss. the only reason i don't think it deserves five stars is that the performances of the string quartets are pretty shabby. buy those somewhere else. but buy this philips set first."
Just Wonderfull

"Just compare the price with the quality. Obviously it is not the best recording like does of Deutsche Gramophon or Sony, but it includes exceptional performances fron Quarteto Italiano and the rest of the interpreters. Don't belive what John C. Bostron wrote about quality. For only 70 dollars you have the complete chamber music of one of the greatests composers ever. Buy it, its a wonderfull experience for a very cheep price. If you don't like some recordings you can get other records to have a best sound performance. But for beginers ist just wonderful."
An uneven collection

"I've listened to this set for years and never got into them, never enjoyed them, never was thrilled by them...thought that it was Brahms's fault!
Once I found the DG complete Chamber set used, I picked it up and actually fell in love with Brahms again!
The two sets are worlds apart! The Philips recordings are marked by dim and dry sound, while the DG is bright and fresh all the way through. The performances on the Philips are pretty well all not very inspired and energetic, (except the Cello Sonatas) while on the DG you feel like you want to keep listening over and over again!
